latenightcoding

OP you mentioned mojo, have you tried it yet? Jeremy from fast ai (one of their advisors) overhyped it so much I’m taking their claims with a grain of salt for now.

I hope I’m wrong, but I do not believe the blackout will be effective. Mainly because there is not a clear alternative to Reddit.

bad name, bad domain and OP is chasing all sort of buzzwords which makes me think this wont last long

your own obscure lisp of course!

I understand this sort of articles are for entertainment and are meant to be relatable, but this one is pretty ridiculous, what does "started in a Denny's" even mean? did Nvidia's founder teach himself electrical engineering while he was waiting tables at Denny's or something. Next time I start something I'm only talking about it at el pollo loco.

a fast lisp interpreter/compiler?

So if Janet refactored the interpreter to use linked lists, CONS/CAR/CDR everywhere in the C code but the language stayed the same (if possible) would it fit your definition of being a lisp ?

>> it does not use linked lists at its core

does Clojure?

I can implement a Scheme interpreter that passes most test suites using vectors instead of linked lists, would you not consider it a lisp?

This title is working overtime

Last time I tried ish it would freeze during any serious coding task. Can't remember if I was using an interpreted language or C.

There are some many things wrong with this book but this critique is really bad and I wish people would stop sharing it.

It starts with: >> First off: God help you if you are going to write your first interpreter in C of all things.

How can anybody take this seriously.

Shor's algorithm can break RSA, Diffie-Hellman, and elliptic curve DH. Some researchers believe it can be generalized to break lattice-based crypto.

QCs also useful for quantum simulations.

Prusa printers were great many years ago. in 2023 I'd recommend buying any cheap Chinese brand. I bought an i3 MK3S+ and it almost made me lose my love for 3d printing, the machine is clearly stuck in the past, you don't even have remote printing out of the box, you face as many issues as you would with a cheap 3d printer, but you have to pay over $1k USD and wait months to get one.

I was done with bing chat after I waited for weeks to get access, and when I finally got the “you are in” email it turns out I just got access to the new bing and to use bing chat I need to download edge. I don’t care how much cool tech Microsoft has now, they will always be Microsoft

this one does RAII in C and it's most likely faster: https://bit.ly/3ICOplU

Author is not rolling their own crypto. They are using libsodium.

None of the TVs I bought before 2020 required a sign in for apps.

Designing Data-Intensive Applications is a good start.

Poorly named algorithm

Doubt this. Many of the libraries that made python so popular were born in Python 2. e.g: most ml and scientific computing libraries still used today.

As someone who still loves Perl I don't want to say Perl is mostly-dead, but it's dying and it influenced all popular scripting languages today.

try J

and you can find SIMD implementations fairly easily

Lowers the severity of these issues tho.

I wonder if their efforts to leverage modern chip capabilities to address memory safety (e.g: ARM memory tagging) contributed to that drop of memory safety vulnerabilities

not the same but torch -> pytorch comes to mind

>> one of the professors in my university has a quantum machine learning (TM) startup

I'm guessing you go to UofT or Waterloo.

Most people don't have his potential. Yeah, I'm aware he pushes a lot of crackpot science, but he is still exceedingly brilliant. For the average folk, this is a horrible way to live.

>> Erlang does not use a contiguous chunk of memory to represent a sequence of bytes. Instead, it something called an “I/O list” — a nested list of non-contiguous chunks of memory.

is this cpu cache-friendly ?
